The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) within the Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs is seeking applications for the Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Formula Grant Program. This funding opportunity aims to support federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement officials, prosecutors, and community partners in developing comprehensive, data-driven strategies to reduce violent crime, particularly gun and gang-related violence. The program requires applicants to identify and address the most pressing violent crime problems in their communities through collaborative, evidence-based solutions. Key eligibility criteria and evaluation factors are not specified in the opportunity details provided. The application deadline is March 12, 2025.
The PSN Formula Grant Program demonstrates substantial variability in award amounts, ranging from approximately $50,000 to $711,988, typically covering three-year performance periods. The grants support a wide range of activities, including targeted law enforcement operations, crime prevention initiatives, community outreach programs, gang intervention efforts, and data-driven analytical strategies. The awards are consistently focused on specific geographic regions experiencing high levels of violent crime, such as major metropolitan areas in states like California, Texas, Missouri, and New York.
